Benny, created demo tracks for friends, after finding that these were good, he thought about moving into the musical profession.
The tracks I work on are solely covers and my own
music. I claims H.I.M to be my greatest influence because of Ville Valo's amazing writing talent.
I also enjoy collaborating with friends on their heavy metal bands, helping them whenever needed.
Benny's tracks currently are only demos, they may be tweaked for final record versions.
I hope you enjoy listening to me, offering critique whenever possible!

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You gotta hold me down
Baby won’t you come around?
Hop in the Porsche I’m out
I just need you right now
Blowin' the clouds I stay
Smokin' the pain away
So many things to say
You gotta hold me down
You gotta hold me down
You gotta hold me down
You gotta hold me down
Tell me are you really with me
When I’m down can I count on you to lift me
Do you got me like I got you
When you’re lonely and need someone to talk to
You’ve been running through my mind babe
Imma spend it all on you cause you’re mine babe
Now lay back and lemme show you
Imma treat a queen how I’m supposed to, yeah
You gotta hold me down
You gotta hold me down
You gotta hold me down
You gotta hold me down
Ouuu, ouu, ouu

Ouu, ouu, ouu, lu ouu
Ouuu, yay, yeah

Ou, ouuu, yay, yeah
Hold me down
